Paralysis of the radial nerve results in the inability of the horse to extend the elbow, carpus and foot. It can be caused by hyperextension of the forelimb, excessive abduction of the shoulder, fractured humerus, and prolonged lateral recumbency. The condition may be temporary or permanent depending on the characteristics of the nerve damage.
